March 2018 issue:

Borchert’s work has evolved. “I’ve gone through many phases,” she said.
“My work primarily was mainly done in oil, and in the figurative and
abstract style.” Now she works in acrylic, which she prefers “due to its
versatility, and the fact that it is a water-soluble medium.” While her
earlier work was “categorized in the expressionist figurative genre,”
in 2015, she “decided to focus and do works from my environment and the
nature that surrounds me.”

The Town Courier published the article In Her Element:
Artist Vian Borchert Draws From Nature, Imagination in its March 2018 issue:

Exhibiting her work is a source of great
pride. “I love it when I see people gather in
front of my artwork talking, analyzing and
discussing the ins and outs, the lines and
shapes of the piece,” Borchert said. “Sometimes I
see people walking, then stopping, then coming
close to the artwork, then going away, then coming
back standing quietly looking carefully at the work.
When I observe such behavior, I know the paintings
have managed to do their work: capture the audience
in an intellectual and thought-provoking way.”
